Inhaltsangabe

Over the past two decades, the field of biomaterials has rapidly matured into a discipline, characterized by a firm base of scientific and engineering knowledge. This new text, aimed at bioengineering students at all levels, provides an excellent, readable, survey of the field. This book stresses the biological, chemical and mechanical structural characteristics of successful biomaterials and also covers the pathobiology, wound healing and biological reactions to implants. The final chapters deal with the promise of tissue engineering and where biological materials may be taking us in the future.
